Bea Alerte - Subs Proved More Effective

11/20/2016

Picture
The Cold War had a homefront too.  Bea Alerte and her friend Justin Case helped to prepare Canadians to deal with the eventualities of an atomic attack. School children practiced crouching under their desks, pedestrians were advised to lie down facing the curb, air raid sirens went up on the roof of corner stores and parents contemplated building a bomb shelter in the back yard.

Elsewhere in Ottawa, plans were in hand to launch our own Silent Warriors - OJIBWA, ONONDAGA and OKANAGAN to tail Soviet nuclear missile bearing vessels and take them out if necessary; deliver special forces to their assignments and pick them up later and 'other duties'.
